Nice post, Juice. I was still catching up on my DVR at the end of the game and missed McD doing this. It’s good to see that the chaotic, high stress time at the end of close NFL games isn’t too big for him. Awareness like that shows that he belongs.

It will all depend on two things: when Peterman is ready enough to start and if Taylor gets injured. Notably the bye week for the Bills is week 6. If ready I can see Peterman getting some reps in game 5 and then the change being made over the bye.

Touchy..... That was actually pretty well done.

I thought he meant there are no more female Bills fans.

This is correct. Time to throw is the time from snap to release.

As has been noted on this board a multitude of times, Henderson has had many suspensions and incidents related to marijuana use that far predate his Crohn's diagnosis. He's not here because he'd rather smoke pot than play football.

Tyrod's contract was reworked before Beane got here. With the guarantees in it he had to stay on the roster for this season. That's not on Beane at all. It's on Whaley and/or McD.

You'll get your wish at some point this season. We will see Peterman, probably after the bye.

Yeah he has. I didn't have much hope for him based on what he looked like in Cleveland, but he's changed my mind. Looks to be a great signing and a quality starter.

To me it felt like we are a QB away from being a very good team, a favorite to make the playoffs at least as a WC team. Thanks

Glad you're back out there and having a good time, John. Good luck.

My family in North Naples is okay. Scary times and no power for the last half a day, but all are well as of now. Hope everyone else here and their families are faring as well.

Jest still have a lot of talent on their front 7 and were focused on McCoy. The Bills did very well running the ball considering that. We're going to have agree to disagree on Tyrod. Loved what I saw from White too. Agree there. And I agree with the grain of salt comment. It was against a bad Jest team.

Overall it was a very positive game for the Bills. The rushing attack looked great. The defense looked very good. The passing offense had its moments and it was good to see him hit Clay over the middle. I think Taylor is doing everything he can to help the team, including running the ball well, but I still don't see him getting through progressions. That's what's holding the team back right now. He's got to find his second and third options instead of locking onto his primary and then running if that's not there.

Contracts in the NFL don't usually have much in the way of guarantees (except for elite players) and teams often void them if players aren't living up to them. This is just the other side of that coin. It's a business. Why get bent out of shape when a player holds out and not when teams release players?

Appreciate the info. Can't say as I blame him.

That sure looked like Gilmore expected the safety to be there over the top. The safety dragged another receiver across the middle of the field all the way to where the other safety was. It just looked odd. Just rewatched it. There was another WR running free opposite Hill. Something was wrong with that defense on the play. It totally left open both of the deep sidelines.

My dad, his wife and much of her family is in the North Naples area. Her mom can't travel so they're all staying. Hoping for the best..... Best wishes to all who are there and all who are traveling out.

Can't believe you actually watched it. That's what DVR's are for. Pause and skip until it's over.

BOOM! There it is.

Nice to see the effort.

The Bills will be pretty average this season, around 7 wins. Some people will complain about how they suck and some will convince themselves that the Bills were a few plays away from the playoffs. Some will realize that they're a middle of the pack team that's probably going to trend up.

A good team should comfortably beat the Jest this season. I expect that. A great team should be able to play vanilla schemes and beat the Jest. I don't expect that.

.That's precisely what Rodak said. Not a tank. Retooling for the scheme and mentality of the new regime. Trying to win now but also looking toward the future. It makes sense from where the Bills were when McD took over. It's how I also see it and I'm good with the approach.

What kid doesn't dream of making the NFL All Preseason Team?
